tremere110: When I was very young, I used to see a man walk into my parents room and I would follow him. I would enter the room and witness him killing my father with a knife. Apparently my description of the guy matched the description of someone who was murdered in the house years prior. At least this was what my mom told me - I fortunately have no memory of the incident.

More recently - my old apartment in San Diego seemed to be haunted. I was taking a shower and I saw a shadow of someone moving past the shadow curtain. I thought it was my girlfriend of the time. She had left for work earlier and I thought she came home early. I called out for her but received no response. I got out of the shower and peeked into the living room which was entirely dark. I wrote it off as just seeing things. A couple months later my girlfriend was freaking out about something on her phone. On it was a picture neither of us had taken. It was a picture of that same bathroom. The picture was of an orange mist - it seemed to for the shape of a grinning face. There were a few more incidents after that. We soon moved out of that place and I haven't encountered much paranormal since - good luck to whoever moved into that place.

Oh, that's a category 3 type b (probably theta or tau class, hard to tell without audio).

But people freak out over any type, these days.

Lone_Scout: I even participated in a Ouija many years ago. Boring experience until *cough* someone *cough* started manipulating the thing. Quite an easy thing to do, just apply a slight, almost unnoticeable, pressure in some direction, and the rest of the participants will instantly move the planchette over there.
My mother started reading coffee grounds at the end of an evening with unknown people. She impressed them a lot by "discovering" various tidbits from their lives - that they had all casually mentionned during the course of the evening. She had a hard time, afterwards, convincing them that it was actually a joke, and that all her knowledge came from that evening's small talks.

That's awful! But your mom really should have moved you guys out after the first time her husband was stabbed to death right next to her by a ghost. How many successive fathers did you lose in this manner, anyway?

Hah! I should've been clearer. No, my dad wasn't actually stabbed at all. It just appeared that way to me. I would keep waking up my dad each night saying he was covered in blood. My parents eventually turned my bed around so I couldn't see into the hallway and I never had a problem after that.

It would probably qualify as a Class 2 Focused Free-Floating Vapor - at least if I remember my Ghostbusters lore correctly ;)

Oh, that's not so bad, then. I was thinking, "Why would new guys keep marrying her, considering all her previous husbands got stabbed to death in their bedroom (presumably while she was in it, too), and 'A ghost did it!' isn't exactly the most reassuring explanation?" This makes more sense. :)
This thread takes me back to when I was a wee lad! "Dangerous Dave in the Haunted Mansion" was one of the first games I played on a PC.
I have never seen ANY paranormal phenomena.

Now I'm all sad

It's a mindset, you know. Mostly an interpretative choice.

(In both ways, by the way. If you're on the lookout for ghosts, witchcraft or ufos, any odd event may be interpreted as such. If you don't believe in them, then any manifestation can be rationalized - or put in brackets for hypothetic later rationalization. We have access to events, not to causalities. And the way we decide interpret them depends on how coherent the explanation is with the rest of our beliefs - how likely or unlikely we consider one explanation based on what else it implies or requires. So, chances are you arleady witnessed many phenomena that others would have deemed paranormal, but that you didn't register as such.)
